PCOP said Monday it has licensed a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) program from Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY)
The program includes a lead compound in Phase 1 clinical development and back-up compounds. Pharmacopeia, which develop novel small molecule therapeutics, said PS178990 is a non-steroidal selective androgen receptor modulator, or SARM, which is designed to provide the benefits of testosterone without its unwanted side effects on the prostate. A Phase 1 single ascending dose study has already been completed. SARM agonists provide a potential novel treatment for muscle wasting associated with a number of serious chronic and acute medical conditions such as surgical and severe burn recovery, end-stage renal disease and cancer.
